I looked carefully at the terminals and even though they are called five way 
binding posts I'm not sure how to hook up banana plugs to them.

I like the midrange on these speakers and the tweeter is also great.

I like to listen to a lot of classical music particularly pipe organ and I 
find the bass on these speakers is still very good considering tha the bass 
driver is just five inches and the cabinet isn't huge.

My Allison Model One's have six drivers in each with two 12 inch woofers per 
cabinet.

You are talking about a ten pound speaker vs ones that weigh 65 pounds each.

I'm mostly impressed with the value for money of the Athenas.

Let me know what luck you have hooking banana plugs to these speakers.

I guess they will have to be secured under the plastic don't know whether or 
not to call it a nut that attaches to the binding post.
